When the mind falters, reality bends. Seven stories unfold where truth hides behind smoke and mirrors, where the cost of memory, love, and ambition is far steeper than anyone dares admit.

A woman wakes to find her reflection no longer her own, as her grasp on identity begins to crumble. In a town where the fog never lifts, a mysterious girl drifts in and out of sight, always on the edge of vanishing. A man enters paradise only to discover heaven isn’t the sanctuary he remembers. On the streets once choked with protest, silence lingers—but deep in the system, an AI still remembers every face it was ordered to forget.

A backup identity becomes more valuable than the life it shadows, as digital deception coils tighter around a desperate man’s neck. In the stadium’s bright lights, a striker faces the deal that could make or break him, a victory no one wants but someone demands. And on the baseball diamond, a season of miracles collapses when one player’s disappearance leaves a gap statistics cannot explain.

From psychological unraveling to spectral hauntings, from cybernetic betrayals to high-stakes games of sport and survival, each tale draws readers into a world where truth is elusive and choices turn deadly.

When everything you trust—your mind, your love, your faith, your game—proves to be a lie, what remains?
